PHILOSOPHY

Program Options

Core 200, in which students examine their basic assumptions, survey the history of philosophy, study a biblical basis for a reformational worldview, and discuss what it is to "know"

11 courses, two of which can be courses from the engineering, political science, or theology curriculum

Advanced courses that focus on periods in the history of philosophy and the systematic study of topics such as anthropology, aesthetics, and logic

Students can personalize their study by taking an individual studies course. With the help of an advisor, students will select a subject they'd like to learn more about and then spend a semester researching and studying the topic under the supervision of a professor.

Co-curricular activities, such as Philosophy Club, lectures, films, and discussions, give an opportunity to talk about current issues and ideas. Some of the most thoughtful and provocative contributions to the student newspaper have come from philosophy students.
